Lady Kitana

I have read throught these posts and some good points were raised , as long as the people involved were mature and responsible enough to keep their relationship outside the class , I don't see a problem . people are entitled to their private lives ,But if the relationship starts interfearing with their training and the training of other students . Then it is a different thing entirely !

I don't really have a first weapon , but I am looking foward to day when I can learn one . lol can anyone guess what it might be *points to avatar*

I started at the age of 21 , I always wanted to learn but my family couldn't afford to put me in it . But here I am and I love every minute of it

well I haven't been involved in martial arts for very long but my greatest achievements so far would be getting my orange belt and competing in my first tournament.

hey hows it going , welcome to the boards and enjoy your stay

don't give up something you love because of a bunch of immature people , if they were any kind of avanced students they should supporting your class not putting you guys down. I admire how you stand by your teacher and how your are dealing with this situtation shows me ( and I am shure people will agree ) that you are better then they are , which makes you a true martial artist at heart and that is most important

hi and welcome to the boards

nice to meet you , glad to have you with us

thanks for the welcome everyone

Iam a mixture of both when I am sparring although I find sometimes when people fight agressive and let loose they do get some good kicks and punches in but get tired very quickly , especially when I fight my own belt level so I sometimes let them get tired then I go in being agressive and finish them off. I find switching stances can surprise someone ( well expect for my instructor , nothing seems to surprise him lol) Even when I am not sparring I watch how people spar and get a idea on how they fight and what kind of moves they like to make.

Davison I am really sorry that you had such a hard time with your Girlfriend, that was pretty cruel and heartless. especially when she cheated on you , it must of been pretty hard to take. I hope you continue to do well in your traning and wish you the best in the future Iam kind of undecided on weather or not I would want to train with my boyfriend , I can understand both sides but I guess it depends on the people . I would have to say do what you think is best for you

lol you got guts I give you that ! I too figured that the best way to learn how to spar was with a blackbelt , and he was kind enough to give me the proper education some advice though, I would make an appoipment with your doctor ahead of timeand inform them of what you going to do , that way they will know your comming and you won't have to wait lol all kidding aside , as I said before It is good that your learning form a black belt I still spar with one every chance , and good luck in your first tournment. I hope to fight in my first one soon too hey we can both get pounded on together lol

Iam very happy at the school I am tranning at , the teachers are nice and the other students are very friendly and supportive.

hi everyone If I had the chance to learn how to fight with weapons , which one is the best one to start with the fan or sai's. They both look really cool . thanks !

hi everyone , It's nice to see some fellow Kenpo students.

hi and welcome to the KF , looking foward to talking to you as well

Hi and welcome to the boards !!!!

I got involved in Martial arts because I always wanted to learn how to fight , being a small person . Also I wanted to get into shape , meet new people and have fun . So I am involved in Kenpo for almost a year and I love it and hopefully get my black belt . someday

I would have to say the exercises I hate more than anything is RUNNING and PUSH-UP'S !!!! I would rather do all the jumping jacks, sit-up's in the world than do either of these exercises !!!! Also after reading some of these posts I thought my work outs were bad, I pity you guys LOL

I just singed on the boards for the first time and I just wanted to introduce myself. Iam a kenpo student and currently a yellow belt , I am going for my orange soon . This site seems to very good in giving advice and sharing stories and Iam looking foward to talking with everyone, and sharing my stories as well. So I will be talking to you all soon !
